Chapter 115 Provocation

Ye Fei ordered two pizzas. Lin Qingwan ate a bit and went to bed early.

Mu Cheng was a.s.signed to the night s.h.i.+ft at the hospital, Murong was in a meeting at the police station, and Chu Mo and Liu Manman were out somewhere.

In the whole apartment, there were only Ye Fei and Lin Qingwan.

He watched TV in the living room for a while and was about to go to his room to practice martial arts when the door opened and Liu Manman stomped in. "Ye Fei! Where is Su Di?"

"How should I know?" he shrugged lazily. "I'm not his father, I don't know where he went."

"You... You b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" Liu Manman stomped off to her room and slammed the door behind her. After a while, Ye Fei heard soft sobbing through her door.

Just after, Chu Mo slowly ambled in and collapsed on the sofa without even taking off her shoes.

After a while, she noticed Liu Manman's crying and straightened up somewhat. "I'm so tired…" she sighed. "Are you sure we should keep hiding it from her?"

"You are her best friend, you tell me," Ye Fei said. "Anyway, in my opinion, if we tell her the truth, she will be even more upset than she is now. She might even do something stupid," he said with a grave expression.

Ye Fei had amazing foresight. Although he had only known Liu Manman for a brief time, he could see she was a very emotional woman. She wouldn't be able to bear it if she knew the truth.

Chu Mo sighed. As Liu Manman's best friend, she of course knew what would happen if she told her the truth, but she couldn't keep deceiving her forever.

That morning, Liu Manman had gone to Su Di's house with Chu Mo and found it already empty. She tried to call him, but no one answered.

At first, Liu Manman wasn't too worried. She shrugged it off and said, "Su Di doesn't touch his phone when he's in cla.s.s. He'll call me back later."

However, Su Di still hadn't called her back by noon, and Liu Manman was becoming a little agitated. She kept calling him, but there was still no answer. 

At that point, she began to realize that something was wrong. 

She immediately reported this to the police, but the policeman on the phone said, "We can only file a missing person case for an adult if they'd been missing for three days or more. Your boyfriend has been gone only one day. He's probably just sleeping off a hangover at a friend's house or something, so I'm afraid I can't help you."

Liu Manman was angry and worried, and she spent the whole day running around the city looking for Su Di, not even stopping to have dinner.

"Professor Chu, take good care of Liu Manman for now," Ye Fei said. "I'm sure she'll be fine in a few days."

"Manman is completely wrong about you, but she has no idea how much you did for her," Chu Mo sighed. "I heard about Zhong Mei, too. You are really a very kind man. I'm going to bed now, I'm exhausted."

With that, she went to her room.

"I'm kind?" Ye Fei chuckled to himself. The cold-blooded sniper of the Falcon team was a kind man?

Early the next day, Ye Fei drove Lin Qingwan to the university. 

Walking around the campus while she was sitting in cla.s.s, he b.u.mped into Li Tiejun and went to his dormitory to chat.

His room was at the staff dormitory, repurposed from an old students' dormitory. It was a bit shabby and the corridor was dark. 

The other security guards were out patrolling the campus. Only Li Tiejun, as the supervisor, was allowed to take a break, so the dormitory was empty except for him and Ye Fei. 

They discussed what happened at the beach the other day. Li Tiejun was still very excited about Ye Fei's bada.s.s and awesome plan.

After a few minutes, the sound of multiple loud footsteps came from the hallway, followed by a loud crash as the door was kicked in.

Ye Fei reacted instantly, reflexively sliding under a table as if a shootout was about to commence.

Li Tiejun's reaction was much slower. A moment later, he jumped from his bed and raised his rubber baton. "Who the h.e.l.l are you!?"

Three students leisurely walked into the room like they owned the place. One of them pinched his nose and made a displeased face at the messy state of Li Tiejun's dorm.

They glanced around imperiously, as if merely stepping into such a place was beneath them.

When they saw Ye Fei, they kicked the table aside and laughed, "Is this coward Ye Fei?"

The young man who spoke was tall and solidly built. He wore a black vest over his upper body, highlighting his toned arms. He didn't even look at Li Tiejun as he snorted, "Are you Ye Fei?"

Ye Fei frowned. He didn't know any of them, but they didn't seem very friendly. "Who are you?"

The vested man kicked the nearest chair across the room. "I'm asking the questions here, d.a.m.nit! Are you Ye Fei?"

The two youths behind him had nothing but disappointment on their faces. They imagined Ye Fei to be a powerful fighter, but he was nothing but a scrawny coward who hid under a table at the first sign of trouble.
